6.3 COMMAND DESCRIPTIONS
In the command mode, after a valid password has been entered, entering HELP will cause the
list of all commands to be displayed. Commands can be abbreviated as shown in Table 6-2.
During database setup, one of six user authorization ranks, rank A through F, is assigned to each
user. Thereafter, the availability of any command to any user depends on the rank to which they
have been assigned. The table below lists all commands, valid keyboard abbreviations and user
authorization ranks.

Many commands consist of multiple lines for entering parameters. They will normally be
numbered in sequential order. The exception is when the selection of a parameter creates
additional entries or obviates the need for other entries.
